It could be sweet

I don´t want to hurt you,
No reason have I but fear,
And I ain´t guilty of crimes accused me of,
But I´m guilty of fear.
I´m sorry to remind,
You but I´m scared of what we´re creating,
This life ain´t fair.
You don´t get something for nothing,
Turn now,
Hmm gotta try a little harder,
It could be sweet,
Like a long forgotten dream,
And we don´t need them,
To cast the fate we have,
Love don´t always shine through,
´Cause I don´t wanna lose,
What we had last time your leaving,
This life ain´t fair
You don´t get something for nothing,
Turn now,
Hmm gotta try a little harder,
It could be sweet.
But the thoughts we try to deny,
Take a toll upon our lives.
We struggle on in depths of pride,
Tangled up in single minds,
´Cause I don´t wanna lose,
What we had last time your leaving,
This life ain´t fair.
You don´t get something for nothing,
Turn back,
Hmm, gotta try a little harder.
Oh, ´cause I don´t wanna lose,
What we had last time your leaving,
This life ain´t fair.
Oh, no, you don´t get something for nothing,
Turn back,
Hmm gotta try a little harder,
It could be sweet.
No reason have I but fear,
And I ain´t guilty of crimes accused me of,
But I´m guilty of fear.
I´m sorry to remind,
You but I´m scared of what we´re creating,
This life ain´t fair.
You don´t get something for nothing,
Turn now,
Hmm gotta try a little harder,
It could be sweet,
Like a long forgotten dream,
And we don´t need them,
To cast the fate we have,
Love don´t always shine through,
´Cause I don´t wanna lose,
What we had last time your leaving,
This life ain´t fair
You don´t get something for nothing,
Turn now,
Hmm gotta try a little harder,
It could be sweet.
But the thoughts we try to deny,
Take a toll upon our lives.
We struggle on in depths of pride,
Tangled up in single minds,
´Cause I don´t wanna lose,
What we had last time your leaving,
This life ain´t fair.
You don´t get something for nothing,
Turn back,
Hmm, gotta try a little harder.
Oh, ´cause I don´t wanna lose,
What we had last time your leaving,
This life ain´t fair.
Oh, no, you don´t get something for nothing,
Turn back,
Hmm gotta try a little harder,
It could be sweet.
